Ford only offered to supply the whole linkage assy.

Good one, I like it!

Thanks for the feedback. I've been thinking it was a broken pipe, like an a/c pipe clip busted or something. Since most of the roads in the UK are crap the noise is there almost all the time! Is the drop link also known as a connecting link that attaches to the stabaliser bar? I'm looking on my TIS Looks like a straight forward job. Did you DIY chromedome?

What does the sound of worn drop links sound like? I've got a rattle/knock that I can't find on mine and it's driving my wacko!

Pressures for mine are on a label on the inside of the filler cap - 33front 30 rear for normal loads.

Before they changed the makeup of the pads, to remove asbestos, I got nearly 90,000 from a set of disks on the front - now I'm lucky to get 50,000. Yours does seem high though.

Bummer!

Sorry to disagree with the other replies, but all I did was: (I have the tilt & rake steering wheel) set steering wheel to max out and down, remove the 2 screws at the top of the oval shroud; you need to tease the bottom of the shroud up to clear 2 retaining lugs while removing the shroud from the dash; Note: remove the metal clip that is pushed on the dash, else you will scratch the front lens on the cluster!; the cluster is then held with 2 screws in each upper corner; the cluster is removed by tilting it forward ( the bottom of it sits in 2 plastic runners); unclip 3 multiplugs; remove from dash from one side of the steering wheel in a tilt and one corner movement. Why do you need to remove the cluster?

Can't help with answers to your questions, sorry. But I was wondering what affect these bad sensors had on the running of the engine?

One thing you could do is check for sparks at the plugs while you crank. If you get spark I would not think it's immobilised.

Truth is I never looked at it that close! Yea, give me 2 days and I'll pop it right out for ya! Don't standby!!

I guess you are right, it must be the restister pack. It looked different to the diagram on the TIS. I stand corrected.

What I don't understand is, doesn't the work carried out so far by your local Ford dealer make them libale for the cost of the non-repairs carried out so far, and don't they have an obligation to fix your problem? Why bail out and get someone else involved, and in the process potentially give Ford a get out clause?

Mike, the red block is nothing to do with the blower pack. Restister pack replacement diag from TIS is shown here http://www.citroenpicasso.org.uk/picasso/i...indpost&p=57227 click on Doc1 attachment
